302. "Luck"

Luck always favours the mind that is prepared. And when I look at it, the harder I work, the luckier I get.

This means that before every event, every test, job interview, exam or encounter of any sort, you should prepare, do your homework, check, double check and check again everything connected with it.

Luck is defined as that which happens when opportunity meets preparation. Learn to recognise it whenever it happens.

147. Your Modus Operandi (M.O.)

First clear your workspace, then gather all your tools and materials and work solidly, steadily and methodically. Do not overlook details. Finish on time allowing enough time to clean up and put everything away properly.
